20-40 litre hiking backpacks
Every 20 to 40 litre hiking backpack in this selection has an explicitly stated capacity in its product information. The range covers day hikes through to longer outings with extra layers and equipment; choose around the load you will carry, not the largest available volume.
Check the product page for capacity, back panel, shoulder straps, access points and stated adjustments. If possible, try the pack with a realistic load, tightening the hip belt before the shoulder straps. Walk, bend and check that it remains stable without pressure points. Think about where water, a jacket and frequently used items will go, too: useful organization matters more than the simple number of pockets.
A short outing may only need a simple setup; longer routes require a different assessment based on the actual load. Return to the Trekking collection to compare shoes, jackets and trousers for the same activity.
